Re: Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

X stands for two lips coming together. >< then squash them together and you get the X.

O is for the circle formed when you put your arms around someone and draw them in.

that's my opinion and I'm stickin' to it. Altho I have been known to be wrong so you might be able to convince me otherwise. But if you can't convince me, I'm sticking with my own opinion. But feel free to try, I don't have anything major to do until later today...................

Re: Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

According to dictionary.com, one definition of "x" is:

--(used at the end of letters, telegrams, etc., to indicate a kiss.)

Oxford English Dictionary also agrees.

I can't agree with that as it is not spoken in the order that it's written.

XOXO - Hugs and Kisses

It doesn't say Kisses and Hugs. That just doesn't make sense to say it one way and then write it backwards.

We don't care. You're wrong and we're right.

Don't give us that dictionary stuff.
We don't accept no dictionary as authoritative.

What does the UPC Manual say,
and what does the tradition of the UPC elders say?

I think the Manual would say only holy kisses, and no full body hugs.
